[comp.periphs] HELP with terminal/printer operation!

tim@lakesys.lakesys.com (Timothy Winslow) (09/29/89)

I have a problem!  I have a Hazeltine Executive 80 Model 20 terminal, and a
Star Gemini 10X printer.  I am trying to get these to interface, but with
no luck.  I am sure I need a special cable, but I haven't been able to
figure out the right combination!  I will post the pinouts, and I am sure
that someone reading this can E-Mail me the correct cable wire-up!

Star Gemini 10X				Hazeltine
---------------				---------
1 Chassis Ground			1 Chassis Ground
2 RD					2 TX
3 TX					3 RD
4 CTS					4 CTS
5 RTS					5 RTS
6 Not used				6 Always High
7 Signal Ground				7 Signal Ground
8 DCR					8 Always High
11 RCH					9-25 Not used
13 Signal Ground
20 DTR

Here it is, plain and simple.  Both of these are set at 2400 baud, and both
work, as I can get a modem to work on the regular port on the Hazeltine, and
the printer runs nicely on an IBM!  Please help me!!!!!!
